| On 3 occassions, when trying to stop the car from a slow speed, the throttle failed to disconnect. i was able to slow the car down from 25 mph to 3mph, but i could not get it to stop until i put it into neutral. when i did that, the engine raced just like it would if you were on the gas and shifted to neutral. i have had the car for 13 months and this did not happen until2 months ago, and has now happened 3 times. of course, nissan can't replicate and says there is nothing wrong. only happened at slow speed and within 5 minutes of starting the car after sitting for several hours.. weather was above 70 all 3 times. | |||

| Purchased a new 2010 nissan maxima. this past weekend, 4-3-11 while traveling engine developed a loud sound like metal to metal grinding or loud muffler. car taken to the dealership to have checked, has been there for 4 days and yesterday we were informed that the transmission needed replaced. extremely low mileage on this model & no excuse for this transmission to be bad already! it appears there have been other reports of transmissions going bad in the nissan maxima, can this be investigated?? | |||

| While doing normal driving, on two occasions, one coming down a slight hill and planning to stop at a corner, and once when pulling into my carport, with foot lightly on the brake, i noticed the engine racing at 2000 rpm or so, trying to accelerate. was able to hold car with footbrake, and, after stopping, problem did not seem to repeat immediately. *tr | |||
